This gorgeous work is based on two pencil rubbings that Long took from a textured piece of slate within the Cornish landscape. The drawings were turned into a single screenprint using a photo-separation process and printed using repeated additions of ink until the image had reached the tonal balance demanded by the artist. Elegant and timeless, this work is a vivid example of Long's fascination with the intersection of natural and human processes.
Circles are a key motif within Long's body of work. He has explained that "a circle outdoors focuses our attention on the environment it is in, while indoors the circle and materials demand the attention".
